Abstract: SSA uses this information collection to determine SSI eligibility or the benefit amount for SSI recipients who enter or leave institutions. SSA personnel collect this information directly from SSI recipients, or from someone reporting on their behalf. An SSI recipient who enters an institution may be unable to report; therefore, a family member sometimes makes this report on behalf of the recipient. When contacting SSA, the recipient or family member of the recipient provides the name of the institution; the date of admission; and the expected date of discharge. The respondents are SSI recipients who enter or leave an institution.
